Ur not digesting fat: Following GB surgery, you no longer have bile to break down fats in your diet. Most surgeons don't tell their patients about this but it is definitely the case (they mainly warn about eating fats). You need to either be on a near zero fat diet (not healthy) or get bile acid tablets and take them before each meal. If that doesn't work, a GI consult would be indicated.
